If you've ever dreamed of becoming Cleopatra—even for just one golden moment—you're in the right place.
Egyptian design isn’t just something I admire. It’s part of who I am. It lives in my photography, my personal style, the jewelry I layer on daily. You’ll see it in my home, in the way I design events, in the curated pieces I sell at my Naughty Girl store, and in the bold sets I’ve built inside my Los Angeles studio. I don’t just shoot Egyptian-inspired content—I live it.
As a photographer, I specialize in capturing that rare blend of power, seduction, and divine beauty that Egyptian iconography represents. I know how to light you like a goddess. Pose you like a queen. And style you with precision—because this world isn’t a costume to me, it’s a language I speak fluently.
And when it comes to creating the full fantasy? My studio is the only Egyptian themed photo studio LA with authentic Egyptian props for rent—ready for your next shoot, brand campaign, film, or sultry goddess moment.
Lighting Tips
When you're working with a themed shoot—especially something as bold and iconic as ancient Egypt—the lighting can make or break the fantasy. For this shoot, I used one of my all-time favorite tools: the Fresnel light.
A Fresnel light is commonly used in film and theater because of its ability to cast a focused, cinematic beam of light. It creates dramatic shadows, rich highlights, and deep contrast, which is exactly the mood I was after. For this shoot, I wanted it to feel like you had stepped into a tomb. Dark, mysterious, golden, and sacred.
I started with a cheap Egyptian backdrop from Amazon—and it looked like it. Flat, lifeless, and obviously printed. But once I hit it with the Fresnel, it transformed. The light sculpted the texture and made the backdrop look almost three-dimensional, like ancient carvings lit by flickering torchlight. That’s what this light does best—it turns something flat into something cinematic.
That said, the Fresnel is not forgiving. It’s a high-contrast light, so every wrinkle in your backdrop, every crease in a costume, and every line on the model's body will be exaggerated. That’s why I always:
Steam or stretch the backdrop as much as possible before the shoot.
Direct the beam carefully—to shape the shadows and avoid lighting what I don’t want seen.
Use diffusion sparingly if I want to soften just a bit without losing the punch.
Pose the model intentionally—this light exaggerates everything, so posing is critical. A single turn of the face can either sculpt beautifully or cast an unflattering shadow.
Choose fabrics and textures that shine under this type of light—like gold, metallics, and rich velvets. They absorb and reflect light in a way that brings them to life.
For this shoot, the Fresnel was my main light. It gave the whole scene that timeless, dramatic energy—as if Cleopatra herself had stepped out of the shadows. That’s the power of knowing your light.
Egyptian Photography
As a photographer, I don’t just snap pretty pictures—I build worlds. And when it comes to Egyptian photography, no one does it like I do.
At my Los Angeles studio with Egyptian sets, I’ve designed fully custom Egyptian sets—rich with golden thrones, hieroglyphic walls, scarab accents, and dramatic temple-inspired details. Every backdrop is handcrafted to transport you straight into a fantasy worthy of Cleopatra herself. These aren’t generic props—they’re made for storytelling, seduction, and strong feminine energy.
When you book with me, you're not just getting a shoot—you’re stepping into a curated experience. I’ll style you in pieces from my Naughty Girl collection, many of which were designed specifically with Egyptian glamour in mind. Think metallic fabrics, structured gold collars, sheer goddess gowns, and bold accessories that command attention. From headpiece to heel, I’ll make sure you look—and feel—like royalty.
Whether you’re shooting a personal boudoir session, a high-fashion editorial, or a campaign that needs queen energy—I’ll capture it all with a lens that loves drama, sensuality, and divine feminine beauty.

Egyptian Events in Los Angeles
When I hosted my own Egyptian-themed event, I used every inch of my studio and prop collection to create a world that felt like stepping into an ancient palace. Guests weren’t just attending a party—they were entering ancient Egypt.
Golden thrones lined the space. Guests sipped cocktails at the Altar Bar of Tenenit, surrounded by towering Luxor columns and dramatic hieroglyphic walls. The Sphinx statue became a jaw-dropping photo moment, while glowing candlelight and rich velvet textures turned the evening into pure, decadent magic.
Every detail—from the sarcophagus wall art to the gold-accented lounges and boho tribal rugs—was styled to create a fully immersive Egyptian experience. People didn’t want to leave... and they still talk about it.
These are the very same props you can rent for your next project—whether it's a:
High-end Cleopatra fashion shoot LA dripping in goddess glam
Film scene set in an exotic ancient world
Bold, cinematic music video
Or a luxurious themed event your guests will never forget
